What we need is a "21st Century Full Employment Act for Peace and Prosperity" which would make it a mandatory requirement that the president and Congress attain and maintain full employment.

Murder in Sointula, British Columbia?

Note: Blogger.com, under pressure from the RCMP and Vic Toews, insisted I remove the photograph of me and Mark Homer who died under very mysterious circumstances. That the Canadian government is going to such extreme lengths to escape having to explain the circumstances surrounding Mark Homer's death leads me to believe Mark Homer was murdered. 


There was a picture here of me at the home of artist Mark Homer in Sointula, British Columbia (1998). Because Blogger.com has threatened to close down my blog I removed the photograph.

I was fighting deportation from Canada at the time and Mark Homer was one of many Canadians who raised his voice in opposition to our deportation. I will be posting the letters he and many others wrote demanding a halt to our deportation.

Sointula originated as a cooperative community begun by the "Red" Finns who were escaping the persecution by the old Finnish feudal lords for their political beliefs in Finland.

Mark Homer was a fisherman; he died under mysterious circumstances. Mark Homer's dad was one of the founders of the left-led Fisherman's Union.
